Chapter 940: War
In the end, Alina still failed to keep her mouth, and before Catherine had finished settling the domestic affairs and had not returned to Cyprus to continue her vacation, she spoke to the queen on the second day, and when Alina reported on the work here, she said that she had slipped her mouth and told Catherine about the insult to Xia Yunjie by talking about Anufri, the son of the wealthy Russian businessman Slava.
If everyone in this world has his reverse scale, then there is no doubt that Xia Yunjie is now Queen Catherine's reverse scale.
Anuphrli's identity is nothing more than a Russian gentleman, and he dares to blaspheme and humiliate the man she loves the most, which makes her even more angry than offending Catherine.
So Catherine, after listening to Alina's report, was like a mad tigress, and for the first time was very arbitrary and dictatorial, despite the dissuasion of the ministers, she directly ordered to break off all cooperation projects with the Petukhov family, and listed all the direct children of the Petukhov family as unpopular figures in Kinowwillan.
In other words, from the time the queen gave the order, Anupli and other direct descendants of the Petukhov family could no longer set foot on the soil of Kenowiran.
When Queen Catherine's order reached the ears of Slava, the patriarch of the House of Petukhov, Anoufri's father, he could scarcely believe his ears, and could not imagine why Her Majesty Queen Catherine, with whom she had always had a good relationship, would suddenly break off her relationship with her, and also listed them as unpopular in Kenowland.
Confused and angry, Slava called the kingdom of Kinowiran to ask the reason for the incident.
This matter involved Xia Yunjie, and Queen Catherine naturally did not explain. This made the upper echelons of the Petukhov family feel very angry, how can they say that they are also a powerful family in Moscow, how can they allow people to bully so casually? Besides, although Queen Catherine has a noble status, Kinowylan is only a small country after all, and the Petukhov family is backed by powerful Russia, so they are not necessarily afraid of her.
Soon humiliated, the Petukhov family began a counter-offensive by lobbying Russian energy companies not to supply gas to Kinowirand, hacking into Kinowwillan's official website, and even encouraging the Russian rich to withdraw their money from Kinowylan through Guò's upper circles. Because the small Kenowirand, like Cyprus, has a well-developed financial industry, and it is also a "tax haven" for the rich. And in the banks of Kenowirand, a large part of the money comes from the Russians, just as a large part of the money of the banks in Cyprus comes from the Russians. This was the main reason why when Queen Catherine proposed to break off all cooperation projects with the Petukhovs, the ministers opposed it.
Because a Petukhov family is not terrible, the assets of the royal family alone are enough to overwhelm them, and it is terrible that it will cause the Russians to resent them and lead them to withdraw their funds.
Of course, all this qiē struggle was carried out in secret, and ordinary people could not reach it at all. When the "war" broke out, the people of Kenowiran were still living a peaceful and prosperous life, but the ministers of Kenowylan began to be busy, especially Mr. Thomas, who had just taken over the position of Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, and was even more anxious to circle around Queen Catherine, hoping that she would change her mind and restore relations with the Petukhov family.
But the queen's attitude was very resolute, unmoved, and even said that if the country suffered losses because of her decision, she would compensate with her personal assets.
Seeing that Her Majesty the Queen was so resolute that they were even willing to use their personal assets against the Petukhov family, it was obviously a foolish act that harmed others and themselves, and hurt both sides. But would the queen do such a stupid act for no reason? Apparently impossible. Therefore, the ministers were very puzzled in their hearts, and they didn't know why Her Majesty the Queen would suddenly make such a move. But Her Majesty didn't speak, and they couldn't force her to ask.
After all, the royal family of Kenowyland is different from the British royal family, Queen Catherine is the real head of the country, not just symbolic, and even strictly speaking, whether it is the prime minister or the ministers, they are the retainers who help Her Majesty manage her homeland.
Because the country of Kenowiran was originally the fiefdom of the Robert family, and it was their family's private land for life.
In the end, in desperation, the ministers had to privately ask the queen's personal maid Ava about the matter.
As the personal maid of Her Majesty the Queen, the last time she went to China, she and Alina were the people who followed the Queen, so she naturally knew the relationship between Her Majesty the Queen and Xia Yunjie, Xia Yunjie came to Cyprus, and it was also the opportunity for her and Alina to accompany the Queen to pick them up. Now one continues to stay in Cyprus, and the other returns to Kenowyland with Her Majesty the Queen. So Ava's every move is basically very clear, including the fact that Her Majesty the Queen was suddenly very angry after talking to Alina on the phone.
So when the ministers privately knocked on Ava's side to the reason for the queen's sudden anger at the Petukhov family, Ava naturally thought of Xia Yunjie. Because it can cause such an overreaction to the queen who has always been calm and steady, except for Xia Yunjie, Ava really can't think of anyone else, plus this incident happened after the queen and Alina had a phone call, Ava became more and more convinced that this matter had something to do with Xia Yunjie.
But after all, this is related to the privacy of Her Majesty the Queen, as the Queen's personal maid, Queen Ava naturally will not reveal it to the ministers, but in private, out of curiosity, she still called Alina to ask about the cause of this incident.
Alina received a call from Ava, and after listening to her story, she knew that Her Majesty the Queen was furious about Mr. Xia's affairs, and she also knew that for this matter, the Kinowiran Kingdom was being counterattacked by the Petukhov family, and the shape was not very good, and she couldn't help but regret it a little, and now that the former Prime Minister and Minister of Finance of the Kinowiran Kingdom Mr. Aprill had just passed away, and the domestic situation was already complicated, and she should listen to Mr. Xia's words, and she should not say anything, and tell the Queen about this matter in advance.
"I said Alina, what did you say to Your Majesty, is it because of Mr. Xia that Your Majesty is so angry?" Ava asked after telling Alina about the domestic affairs.
"Yes, Slava's son humiliated Mr. Xia's friend, and Mr. Xia came up to him to apologize, and he even scolded Mr. Xia. And afterwards, I heard Xia Yunjie's friend say that on his friend's birthday party before, Naslava had deliberately slandered and teased Mr. Xia many times in front of people. Alina said.
"I really don't know what Her Majesty has taken a fancy to Mr. Xia, and wants to break with the Petukhov family for such a dispute? Well, now that things are going on, the ministers are in a hurry, and if this happens, I think it will spread to the whole country sooner or later......" Ava couldn't help but complain when she heard that the original cause was just a verbal dispute between Xia Yunjie and Slava's son.
